2020 Annual Convention
Access the 2020 Annual Convention Event App
For 30 years, the Community College League of California (League) has served the California Community College system through advocacy, leadership development, and district services. This year, we are proud to present the 2020 Annual Convention as a fully online virtual event, November 17-20, 2020. The Annual Convention is the state's premier professional development conference for California community college leadership. This event brings together CEOs, trustees, faculty, staff, administrators, and partners from across the system to share tools, models, and solutions to system issues.
While the statewide impacts of the Novel Coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) continue to evolve daily, California's community colleges have not only played a pivotal role in educating and training the state's first responders but will also be critical in the state's recovery. The Annual Convention's theme, Resilience Reimagined: Advancing California Community Colleges, spotlights our colleges' ability to transform their institutions and exhibit resiliency in the wake of COVID-19.
As we continue to address the current crisis, the League invites you to our first virtual Annual Convention to discuss advancing our system and maintaining our service for the next 30 years.
Registration
Registration for the League’s 2020 Annual Convention will open Monday, October 5th. This year, the League is pleased to offer the Annual Convention at no cost to attendees. California Community College employees, students, stakeholders, and partner organizations are invited to attend the virtual event.
For questions about registration, please contact Sadie Brown at sadie@ccleague.org.
Registration is now closed for the 2020 Annual Convention.
